Dining Car JNL Font Family was designed by Jeff Levine and published by Jeff Levine. Dining Car JNL contains 2 styles and family package options. A 1929 German travel poster espoused the benefits of using a sleeping car with the caption “Wer Schlafwagen reist spart Zeit und Geld” (which translates to “Whoever travels in a sleeping car saves time and money”).Pictured on the poster is a passing train with the name “Mitropa” lettered on the side of a railway car in a bold, stylized font with thin slab serifs. “Mitropa” was an acronym of “Mitteleuropa” (German for Central Europe), and was used by a catering company than ran the sleeping and dining cars of numerous German railways for a good portion of the 20th Century.The lettering was modified and redrawn as Dining Car JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
